What’s the Difference Between NAD+ and NADH? - Elysiumhealth.com -
"When NAD+ is converted to NADH, it gains two things:
First, a charged hydrogen molecule (H+) and next, two electrons. As electrons
are negatively charged, the combination of the positively charged NAD+ and H+,
coupled with two electrons, effectively cancel each other out and neutralize the
resulting NADH molecule. This is why NADH does not have a "+" sign next to it.
The charge of a molecule informs how it interacts with other molecules. For
example, NADH can’t do what NAD+ does, and vice versa."

NMN and NR: How These NAD+ Precursors Measure Up - elysiumhealth.com -
"NMN is a precursor to NAD+, or nicotinamide adenine
dinucleotide, meaning it becomes NAD+ through a series of chemical
transformations ... However, NMN is like a large bed that movers are trying to
get through a door: It doesn’t enter the cell easily. One way for NMN to enter
the cell is for it to chemically transform into another molecule (called
nicotinamide riboside, or NR) before it can enter the cell. NR has earned a name
for itself as a highly efficient precursor to NAD+ and can enter the cell as is.
NMN, meanwhile, sometimes becomes NR before entering the cell, where it
chemically transforms back to NMN and then ultimately becomes NAD+"

Vitamin
supplement successfully prevents noise-induced hearing loss - Science Daily,
12/2/14 - "the researchers used the chemical nicotinamide riboside (NR) to
protect the nerves that innervate the cochlea ... NR was successful at
preventing damage to the synaptic connections, avoiding both short-term and
long-term hearing loss. What's more, NR was equally effective regardless of
whether it was given before or after the noise exposure ... The researchers
chose NR because it is a precursor to the chemical compound nicotinamide adenine
dinucleotide (NAD+), which had previously been shown by Dr. Brown and co-senior
author Samie Jaffrey, MD, PhD, to protect cochlea nerve cells from injury.
However, NAD+ is an unstable compound, calling into question whether it could be
used out of the petri dish and in a live animal ... Beyond just preventing
hearing loss, the researchers think the results may have broader applications
because of the underlying way NR protects nerve cells ... The success of this
study suggests that targeting SIRT3 using NR could be a viable target for
treating all sorts of aging-related disorders--not only hearing loss but also
metabolic syndromes like obesity, pulmonary hypertension, and even diabetes" - See

Oral nicotinamide riboside
raises NAD+ and lowers biomarkers of neurodegenerative pathology in plasma
extracellular vesicles enriched for neuronal origin - Aging Cell 2022 Dec 14
- "Declining nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+ )
concentration in the brain during aging contributes to metabolic and cellular
dysfunction and is implicated in the pathogenesis of aging-associated
neurological disorders. Experimental therapies aimed at boosting brain NAD+
levels normalize several neurodegenerative phenotypes in animal models,
motivating their clinical translation. Dietary intake of NAD+ precursors, such
as nicotinamide riboside (NR), is a safe and effective avenue for augmenting
NAD+ levels in peripheral tissues in humans, yet evidence supporting their
ability to raise NAD+ levels in the brain or engage neurodegenerative disease
pathways is lacking. Here, we studied biomarkers in plasma extracellular
vesicles enriched for neuronal origin (NEVs) from 22 healthy older adults who
participated in a randomized, placebo-controlled crossover trial (NCT02921659)
of oral NR supplementation (500 mg, 2x /day, 6 weeks). We demonstrate that oral
NR supplementation increases NAD+ levels in NEVs and decreases NEV levels of
Aβ42, pJNK, and pERK1/2 (kinases involved in insulin resistance and
neuroinflammatory pathways). In addition, changes in NAD(H) correlated with
changes in canonical insulin-Akt signaling proteins and changes in pERK1/2 and
pJNK. These findings support the ability of orally administered NR to augment
neuronal NAD+ levels and modify biomarkers related to neurodegenerative
pathology in humans. Furthermore, NEVs offer a new blood-based window into
monitoring the physiologic response of NR in the brain" - See

Nicotinamide mononucleotide
alleviates osteoblast senescence induction and promotes bone healing in
osteoporotic mice - J Gerontol A Biol Sci Med Sci 2022 Aug 29 -
"Combating the accumulated senescent cells and the
healing of osteoporotic bone fracture in the elderly remains a significant
challenge. Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), a precursor of NAD +, is an
excellent candidate for mitigating aging-related disorders. However, it is
unknown if NMN can alleviate senescent cell induction and enhance osteoporotic
bone fracture healing. Here we show that NMN treatment partially reverses the
effects of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) on human primary osteoblasts
(HOBs): senescent cell induction, diminished osteogenic differentiation ability
and intracellular NAD + and NADH levels. Mechanistically, NMN restores the
mitochondrial dysfunction in HOBs induced by TNF-α evidenced by increased
mitochondrial membrane potential and reduced reactive oxidative species and
mitochondrial mass. NMN also increases mitophagy activity by down-regulating P62
expression and up-regulating light chain 3B-II (LC3B-II) protein expression. In
addition, the cell senescence protective effects of NMN on HOBs are mitigated by
a mitophagy inhibitor (Bafilomycin A1). In vivo, NMN supplementation attenuates
senescent cell induction in growth plates, partially prevents osteoporosis in an
ovariectomized mouse model and accelerates bone healing in osteoporotic mice. We
conclude that NMN can be a novel and promising therapeutic candidate to enhance
bone fracture healing capacity in the elderly." - See

Supplementation with NAD +
and Its Precursors to Prevent Cognitive Decline across Disease Contexts -
Nutrients 2022 Aug 7 - "The preservation of cognitive
ability by increasing nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) levels through
supplementation with NAD+ precursors has been identified as a promising
treatment strategy for a number of conditions; principally, age-related
cognitive decline (including Alzheimer's disease and vascular dementia), but
also diabetes, stroke, and traumatic brain injury. Candidate factors have
included NAD+ itself, its reduced form NADH, nicotinamide (NAM), nicotinamide
mononucleotide (NMN), nicotinamide riboside (NR), and niacin (or nicotinic
acid). This review summarises the research findings for each source of cognitive
impairment for which NAD+ precursor supplementation has been investigated as a
therapy. The findings are mostly positive but have been made primarily in animal
models, with some reports of null or adverse effect"

NAD+ to assess health in
aging humans - AGING 2022, Vol. 14, Advance - "With
NAD+involved in so many and such diversecellular functions, ranging from DNA
repair tocircadian rhythms, redox reactions to cell division, inflammation to
epigenetics [1, 2, 8], it could be argued that NAD+ plays a key role in the
regulation of almostall biological processes. With NAD+ so convincingly linked
to health in preclinical models [1], now demonstrated to reflect health in older
humans [4], we ask ourselves the following: For any given intervention to
significantly improve healthspan, should it not also serve to maintain NAD+
levels and homeostasis? We suggest that for a range of healthy aging
interventions in humans—certainly including exercise—NAD+ abundance may serve as
the best molecular marker tounderstand efficacy" - See

Nicotinamide
Mononucleotide Ameliorates Cellular Senescence and Inflammation Caused by Sodium

"retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) ... The protective effects of NMN were demonstrated to rely on undisturbed Sirt1
signaling. Moreover, both the expression of senescence markers of RPE and subretinal inflammatory cell infiltration were decreased by NMN treatment in

key features of AMD. More importantly, NMN may potentially be used to treat RPE
senescence and senescence-associated pre-AMD changes by restoring the NAD+
levels in cells and tissues." - See

Effect of 12-Week Intake
of Nicotinamide Mononucleotide on Sleep Quality, Fatigue, and Physical
Performance in Older Japanese Adults: A Randomized, Double-Blind
Placebo-Controlled Study - Nutrients 2022 Feb 11 -
"Deteriorating sleep quality and physical or mental fatigue in older adults
leads to decreased quality of life and increased mortality rates. This study
investigated the effects of the time-dependent intake of nicotinamide
mononucleotide (NMN) on sleep quality, fatigue, and physical performance in
older adults ... NMN (250 mg) or placebo was administered once a day for 12
weeks. Sleep quality was evaluated using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index.
Fatigue was evaluated using the "Jikaku-sho shirabe" questionnaire. Grip
strength, 5-times sit-to-stand (5-STS), timed up and go, and 5-m habitual walk
were evaluated to assess the physical performance. Significant interactions were
observed between 5-STS and drowsiness. 5-STS of all groups on post-intervention
and drowsiness of the NMN_PM and Placebo_PM groups on mid- and post-intervention
showed significant improvement compared with those in pre-intervention. The
NMN_PM group demonstrated the largest effect size for 5-STS (d = 0.72) and
drowsiness (d = 0.64). Overall, NMN intake in the afternoon effectively improved
lower limb function and reduced drowsiness in older adults. These findings
suggest the potential of NMN in preventing loss of physical performance and
improving fatigue in older adults" - See

Nicotinamide riboside and
caffeine partially restore diminished NAD availability but not altered energy
metabolism in Alzheimer's disease - Aging Cell 2022 Jun 21 -
"The redox co-factor nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide
(NAD) declines with age, and NAD deficits are specifically associated with
dysfunctional energy metabolism in late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD).
Nicotinamide riboside (NR), a dietary NAD precursor, has been suggested to
ameliorate the aging process or neurodegeneration. We assessed whether NR with
or without caffeine, which increases nicotinamide mononucleotide transferase
subtype 2 (NMNAT2), an essential enzyme in NAD production, modulates
bioenergetic functions in LOAD ... although NR and caffeine can partially
restore diminished NAD availability, increasing NAD alone may not be sufficient
to boost or restore energy metabolism in brain aging or alter aberrant energy
management in LOAD. Nicotinamide riboside might still be of value in combination
with other agents in preventive or therapeutic intervention strategies to
address the aging process or age-associated dementia" - See

Exercise increases the
release of NAMPT in extracellular vesicles and alters NAD + activity in
recipient cells - Aging Cell 2022 Jun 3 - "Aging is
associated with a loss of metabolic homeostasis, with cofactors such as
nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+ ) declining over time. The decrease in
NAD+ production has been linked to the age-related loss of circulating
extracellular nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (eNAMPT), the rate-limiting
enzyme in the NAD+ biosynthetic pathway. eNAMPT is found almost exclusively in
extracellular vesicles (EVs), providing a mechanism for the distribution of the
enzyme in different tissues ... Here, we show that release of small EVs into the
bloodstream is stimulated following moderate intensity exercise in humans.
Exercise also increased the eNAMPT content in EVs, most prominently in young
individuals with higher aerobic fitness. Both mature fit and young unfit
individuals exhibited a limited increase in EV-eNAMPT release following
exercise, indicating that this mechanism is related to both the age and physical
fitness of a person. Notably, unfit mature individuals were unable to increase
the release of eNAMPT in EVs after exercise, suggesting that lower fitness
levels and aging attenuate this important signalling mechanism in the body. EVs
isolated from exercising humans containing eNAMPT were able to alter the
abundance of NAD+ and SIRT1 activity in recipient cells compared to pre-exercise
EVs, indicating a pathway for inter-tissue signalling promoted through exercise.
Our results suggest a mechanism to limit age-related NAD+ decline, through the
systemic delivery of eNAMPT via EVs released during exercise"

levels decline during aging, contributing to physical and metabolic dysfunction.
The NADase CD38 plays a key role in age-related NAD decline. Whether the
inhibition of CD38 increases lifespan is not known. Here, we show that the CD38
inhibitor 78c increases lifespan and healthspan of naturally aged mice. In
addition to a 10% increase in median survival, 78c improved exercise
performance, endurance, and metabolic function in mice. The effects of 78c were
different between sexes. Our study is the first to investigate the effect of
CD38 inhibition in naturally aged animals" - See

NAD + Metabolism in Cardiac
Health, Aging, and Disease - Circulation 2021 Nov 30 -
"Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is a central
metabolite involved in energy and redox homeostasis as well as in DNA repair and
protein deacetylation reactions. Pharmacological or genetic inhibition of
NAD+-degrading enzymes, external supplementation of NAD+ precursors, and
transgenic overexpression of NAD+-generating enzymes have wide positive effects
on metabolic health and age-associated diseases. NAD+ pools tend to decline with
normal aging, obesity, and hypertension, which are all major risk factors for
cardiovascular disease, and NAD+ replenishment extends healthspan, avoids
metabolic syndrome, and reduces blood pressure in preclinical models. In
addition, experimental elevation of NAD+ improves atherosclerosis, ischemic,
diabetic, arrhythmogenic, hypertrophic, or dilated cardiomyopathies, as well as
different modalities of heart failure. Here, we critically discuss cardiomyocyte-specific
circuitries of NAD+ metabolism, comparatively evaluate distinct NAD+ precursors
for their preclinical efficacy, and raise outstanding questions on the optimal
design of clinical trials in which NAD+ replenishment or supraphysiological NAD+
elevations are assessed for the prevention or treatment of major cardiac
diseases. We surmise that patients with hitherto intractable cardiac diseases
such as heart failure with preserved ejection fraction may profit from the
administration of NAD+ precursors"

Preclinical and clinical
evidence of NAD + precursors in health, disease, and ageing - Mech Ageing
Dev 2021 Sep 10 - "NAD+ is a fundamental molecule in
human life and health as it participates in energy metabolism, cell signalling,
mitochondrial homeostasis, and in dictating cell survival or death. Emerging
evidence from preclinical and human studies indicates an age-dependent reduction
of cellular NAD+, possibly due to reduced synthesis and increased consumption.
In preclinical models, NAD+ repletion extends healthspan and / or lifespan and
mitigates several conditions, such as premature ageing diseases and
neurodegenerative diseases. These findings suggest that NAD+ replenishment
through NAD+ precursors has great potential as a therapeutic target for ageing
and age-predisposed diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease. Here, we provide an
updated review on the biological activity, safety, and possible side effects of
NAD+ precursors in preclinical and clinical studies. Major NAD+ precursors
focused on by this review are nicotinamide riboside (NR), nicotinamide
mononucleotide (NMN), and the new discovered dihydronicotinamide riboside (NRH)"

The balance between NAD +
biosynthesis and consumption in ageing - Mech Ageing Dev 2021 Sep 9 -
"Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is a vital
coenzyme in redox reactions. NAD+ is also important in cellular signalling as it
is consumed by PARPs, SARM1, sirtuins and CD38. Cellular NAD+ levels regulate
several essential processes including DNA repair, immune cell function,
senescence, and chromatin remodelling. Maintenance of these cellular processes
is important for healthy ageing and lifespan. Interestingly, the levels of NAD+
decline during ageing in several organisms, including humans. Declining NAD+
levels have been linked to several age-related diseases including various
metabolic diseases and cognitive decline. Decreasing tissue NAD+ concentrations
have been ascribed to an imbalance between biosynthesis and consumption of the
dinucleotide, resulting from, for instance, reduced levels of the rate limiting
enzyme NAMPT along with an increased activation state of the NAD+-consuming
enzymes PARPs and CD38. The progression of some age-related diseases can be
halted or reversed by therapeutic augmentation of NAD+ levels. NAD+ metabolism
has therefore emerged as a potential target to ameliorate age-related diseases.
The present review explores how ageing affects NAD+ metabolism and current
approaches to reverse the age-dependent decline of NAD+"

NAD + and NAFLD - Caution,
Causality, and Careful Optimism - J Physiol 2021 May 1 -
"The prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
(NAFLD) is increasing worldwide, and new treatments are direly needed.
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+ ) has been proposed as a potential
target to prevent and reverse NAFLD. NAD+ is an important redox factor for
energy metabolism and is used as a substrate by a range of enzymes, including
sirtuins (SIRT), which regulates histone acetylation, transcription factor
activity and mitochondrial function. NAD+ is also a precursor for reduced
nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), which is an important
component of the antioxidant defense system. NAD+ precursors such as
nicotinamide riboside (NR) and nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) are available
as over-the-counter dietary supplements, and oral supplementation with these
precursors increases hepatic NAD+ levels and prevent hepatic lipid accumulation
in pre-clinical models of NAFLD. Moreover, NAD+ precursors were found to improve
hepatic mitochondrial function and decrease oxidative stress in pre-clinical
NAFLD models. NAD+ repletion also prevents NAFLD progression to non-alcoholic
steatohepatitis (NASH), as NAD+ precursor supplementation is associated with
decreased hepatic stellate cell activation, and decreased fibrosis. However,
initial clinical trials have only shown modest effects when NAD+ precursors were
administrated to people with obesity. We review the available pre-clinical
investigations of NAD+ supplementation for targeting NAFLD, and discuss how data
from the first clinical trials can be reconciled with observations from
preclinical research" - See nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide at Amazon.com.
